ThisMonthThis month in Truro ...

     June in Truro brings average temperatures up another 10 degrees above May's. Days will get on average 40 minutes longer, with average highs of 72 and lows of 56 -- and the bay water will start to warm.  June usually has 25% less rain than May too!   

     It's hard to believe that in three weeks we'll have the longest day of the year. 

     Below are some of the activities and events happening about town this month.
